From the start, contact was great and set the tone for a great couple of days fishing. Unfortunately we had been let down by another boat so I was chasing last minute for an alternative. Glad we ended up with Cest la vie as we had a great days fishing with no issues at all.

Nixon, our captain, was great, helpful and knowledgeable and did all he could to catch up fish. We landed quite a few mahi and small tuna (Bonito) but was unfortunate that we had a sailfish hit a lure then follow for a minute but didn’t take…... That’s fishing!

For background, there were 3 of us fishing and there was plenty of room on the boat, a 4th person would of been no problem. We’re also all fisherman and feel we were given a good experience, allowed to get on with it when needed and helped any time we asked any questions.

Overall we all greatly enjoyed our fishing days and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others. An added bonus was the price is quite reasonable especially when compared to others to fish exactly the same waters.

Thank you, we’ll be back at some point!

Had an excellent fishing trip (morning session) with Darfeel.
Capt. Volodymyr gave us a very warm and friendly welcome.
Check in etc. very fast and easy going.
Skipper Dixon did a great job and brought us where the fish was.
Catched 15 (!) Dorados which is new record for us.
Unfortunately didn’t catch Marlin or Bonitos, but that’s nature and we have to be happy to catch any fish.
It would have even been possible to go home without fish, but today we were more than lucky (or had the benefit of Skipper Dixon‘s experience).
Can highly recommend Capt. Volodymyr and Skipper Dixon - we will certainly repeat!
Thanks guys for the perfect morning
